Old brutalist,New architecture.

A brutalist building designed by architect Huig Maaskant

The original layout and structure of Maaskant’s Bunker offer a solid foundation for redevelopment. The two double-height wings of the building are separated from the lower middle section. These two spaces offer great spatial quality and can be reused well. The middle section is very dark and low, and no longer meets the current building standard. By largely redeveloping this middle part, we can build a residential tower in the middle of the original Bunker.

Location

Perfect location between the university and the city centre.

The combination of living, working, facilities and a beautiful landscaped park make the redevelopment of The Bunker a new hotspot for the city of Eindhoven. The perfect location between the Eindhoven Technical University and the city center. Located on a main access route to the city, ensures that The Bunker is accessible to a diverse audience.

Program

Great variety of functions

The mix of functions in the redevelopment can make the new Bunker interesting for students, residents, the university and the city. Incubator offices for TU/e start-ups, a grand café for the neighborhood and residents, and a beautiful green park where events can be organized for the city or Eindhoven.

Quality of living

The diverse apartments create a unique quality of living.

Due to the high diversity of apartments and large balconies, people will experience a pleasant living climate.

Interior

Diversity is the key to an overall successful development and forms the base of the community we want to create within The BunkerTower. Original floor plans, high-quality workmanship and the freedom to make your own choices in the layout and finishes add an extra dimension to this diversity. There are many different apartment types: from a compact 2-room apartment (almost 60 m2), a penthouse of over 240 m2 with four bedrooms and two bathrooms to a family apartment with an XL-balcony that provide kids the space to play outside.
